Look up WiFi password on an iPhone

If you have forgotten the WiFi password, but have saved it on your iPhone because you have connected to it once, you can look up the WiFi password via your iPhone.

Looking up the WiFi password on an iPhone is particularly useful for times when you want to share the password with friends or family, or when you want to connect another device without having to retrieve the password again. You do not need any additional apps for this, you can find the password in the saved WiFi settings on an iPhone. This is how it works.
